Honey of the Heart — March 2026
Circling. Community. Waters. Inner Fire.
March is shaping up to be one of those months that feels like a full exhale and a courageous inhale all at once… Life is a lot! Especially with the eclipse, full moon, politics, and recent losses…. And here come the spring buds, like they always do.
We’re leaning into our practice. Into family, community. Into songs at the waters. Into deep immersion at The Hearth.
If you’ve been feeling the call to connect — with yourself, with community, with something deep and alive (like the seeds deep in the earth during March) — this month is designed with you in mind.
This is a power-packed post. Perhaps get a cup of tea, sit down, and get ready to explore with us.
Below you’ll find the heart of what’s unfolding.

March 14 — Circling Workshop + Practice
3–5 PM Workshop | 6–9 PM Community Practice
Suggested Donation: $35
No one turned away for lack of funds. (Register at your financial comfort level)
This is a hands-on, heart-open afternoon and evening devoted to relational presence.
3–5 PM — Workshop
We’ll explore the foundations of circling:
- Deep listening
- Clean reflection
- Tracking sensation and truth in real time
- Speaking from immediacy rather than story
If you’re newer to circling, this is your doorway. If you’re experienced, this is refinement and embodied practice.
6–9 PM — Practice Space
We move into live circling containers. Real-time relational meditation.
The kind of space where you get to see yourself — and be seen — in ways that are grounding, revealing, and surprisingly freeing.
Come for one portion or both. Stay curious.
March 15 — House Concert Honey of the Heart + Jessica Malone + A Benefit for River & Sam
5–8 PM | Soup & Bread by Donation
There are moments when we get to be the village.
River and Sam are preparing to welcome their baby into the world, and we’re gathering in song and generosity to support their growing family, with tenderness, celebration, awe, and intentionality.
We’re honored to share the evening with:
✨ Special Guest: Jessica Malone
Jessica will open the evening with her luminous songwriting and grounded presence.
Honey of the Heart will close the night with an intimate, participatory house concert — harmonies, communal singing, and a blessing circle to surround this new life with strength and love.
Soup and bread will be served by donation at 5 PM.
Come early. Bring warmth. Be part of something beautiful.

March/April TBA Stay tuned! — Song Release: “Forager” for the Spring Equinox
We are excited to share this song-baby with the world this Spring!
“Forager”, belongs to a nesting-doll family of sibling songs (including “Seed” off of the “Common Ground” album, and “Salt”, releasing later this year on the “Coming Home” album) that have come through Maren. It traces the arc of a life, reflects on phases of becoming, and the perspective that comes with time, told through a feminine lens and shaped by intergenerational love, the sensuality of our tactile world, and the quiet magic of living close to the earth and honoring its capacity to nourish and heal.
At its core, the song is a reflection on belonging: our relationship to the earth we come from, the disconnection many of us feel from its rhythms, and the longing of our animal selves to return home—to ground, to meaning, and to the living world that gave us life.

March 21 + 22 — At the Waters
Harbin Hot Springs
Vocal Opening Workshop + Intimate Concert
There’s something about singing near warm water that softens everything.
We’ll be offering:
- Vocal Opening Workshop — unlocking the voice as an instrument of emotional truth
- Concert (at the Pavilion) — an acoustic set woven with reflection and shared resonance
Harbin always invites depth — and play — and we’re grateful to return.

Immersion Weekend at The Hearth
This is the deep dive.
A full weekend immersion into:

- Song and ritual
- A guided inner journey experience with skillful support
This container is intentionally smaller and more immersive. There is an element of guided inner work woven into the arc of the weekend. More details are available on our website.

w/ Sharon Brisola
Listen here: https://kkrn.org/broadcasts/5730 as we discuss music, community building, grief, praise, and the deep correlation between music and empathy, as well as empathy’s vital place in our world, lives, and beings.

🌼 Why March Matters
March feels like a bridge from winter inwardness into spring emergence. We are marching forward with our hearts at the center, seeds planted deeply, ready for what is to come, staying with the grief of all that is, and also staying in celebrating the gifts that we can create together as community and family. Thank you for being a part of our community!
With warmth and steady fire,
Honey of the Heart
